and not every girl who starts aged 13 will become the next supermodel that's just naive
I was not saying that. I was just stating that it's nothing new.

I agree with you. I think Monika is very pretty but the agencies should stop scouting so young girls because it's a little bit inappropriate
And they can't be sure if her look will be changing in a good way.Plato's_Cave

Models have always been scouted young. I believe the difference is that, instead of being put on hold or starting out slowly back home, [some] agencies now regularly send 13-year-olds off to Paris.
But I think we should focus on Jac here.
She's a cute girl, but I don't know... very bland so far.

Well, she's a gorgeous little girl IMO. I guess that's all I can say about her :/
But she's lovely, no doubt.

she is VERY beautiful. but putting a 13 year old on a runway is just creepy. i hope she is in the kids section of IMG. she reminds me or alexis bledel a little bit. the eyes and eyebrows and nose.

She has a great face, and I really like her photos, but when I remember she's 13 it just puts me off. I wuold hope that if she was 13, her career woudlnt take off so fast, but rather have IMG slowly develop her until shes at least 15 when they decide to put her into the market full force. At 13, shes just too young.
She is technically very young but she has a very sophisticated look, she certainly LOOKS older and more mature and less child-like than Irina K or Anabela or even Freja and heather Marks. And that's a good thing. In the fashion world it is image that matters, no? I t does bother me that she's so young, but all the older models with the androgynous prepubescent look, like Freja, really bother me even more I think...Irina K Is young and LOOKS young, her pics always seem mildly p*dophile-is, and she always looks uneasy, like she's being exploited. Do we even know how old she is? Monika, like Chanel Iman, is just an exceptionally gorgeous girl who is starting very young.

^^ It has nothing to do with how you look. 13 is 13 no matter what her faces looks like. That's someone who was just 11 a few years ago, and it's disturbing.

I agree wholeheartedly.
She does have a lot of potential, but to be honest I feel like if she reaches the peak in her prepubescent years the rest of her career will be a complete burnout.

Agreed
She is quite stunning, but one would hope that as an international sensation this early, she has the energy and responsibility to handle the workload that comes along with that status. Hopefully her parents, or at least guardians, are looking after her well every step of the way. It would be most unfortunate if her great potential and young career end up hindering her personal growth outside of the industry.IMG gave Tanya D. a similar path to what you described, YBF, and she seems to be quite steady in terms of her career at this point. Let's see how things turn out with Jac here...
Hear, hear
It is alarming to me that I think the same way these days...I actually thought it was Diana Moldovan on that MF cover for a second
Beautiful editorial

^yeah, its kinda sad. I feel the same way about not really being shocked anymore. I guess I'm just having a hard time now putting it into perspective. Are there any pictures of her where she truly looks 13?
